random volunteering questionmy friend wants to do during festival volunteering and there's a chance she'd be the only one in our group volunteering. if she got there when she needed to on weds could she leave later on in the night after all the required stuff is done? as long as she's back by her first shift on thurs or whenever?

I joined, because I'm bewildered by the volunteering process! Help me, please!I've emailed BRoo for more information, which states that an application can be found on the Volunteer page of the BRoo website, but alas- I can't find it! Did I miss the date by two days or something?I'm really not sure what's going on, and I really really really want to volunteer so I may attend/give back to Bonnaroo this year.

LunaPooka, my saving grace!!Thank you so much. I just sent the application, but still couldn't find it on the website.Oh well.

I requested Pre-Fest, so that I could enjoy the festival without reservation, but I have a couple more questions, if anyone is willing to answer them:

If I get Pre-Fest, do I still camp with the volunteers/staff?Also, if I am unable to get off enough work and can't do Pre-Fest, are the Gods of BRoo willing to change my schedule to During-Fest? I could understand if they're not that flexible.

Anyways, I'm hoping for the best, and wish everyone luck on their applications/payment! Hope to see you there!

If you do pre-fest you camp in the volunteer lot. You get there before the rest and get to set up around the fence.

The Roo gods should be able to change your schedule because Pre-fest is more sought after than During but i would check on that.
